Objective: This study is to review the current state of services offered to pharmacy users, and develop a service design converging a prescription service and a smart phone application service in order to enhance patients' experience at pharmacies and home. Background: Under the new medical system; separation of prescribing and dispensing drugs, a doctor writes a prescription to their patients and patients have their prescription filled at the pharmacy. As the number of flue, allergy and atopy patients has increased, waiting lines have been longer at pharmacies. Besides, the current medical service system lacks of providing proper information on prescribed pills to patients. There are already services offered during waiting times such as offering free drinks, magazines or suggesting general drugs which you can buy without prescription, however they neither cover the current medical service's shorts nor shorten the waiting time. Method: I researched objective and perceived waiting times reduction methods, the current service status at pharmacies, and the government's policy direction in a medical service. Also, I observed a patient's journey from the hospital to pharmacy and then home. I examined the circumstance at pharmacies, patients' behaviors and their thoughts during their journey, and extracted three main goals to design a service in order to help patients have positive perception during the waiting time; (1) to reduce the perceived time by the way of visualizing time and offering readings about what patients consider necessary, (2) to educate patients what they are into and how to get through, (3) to establish trust among patients, doctors and pharmacists. Based on three goals, I designed a structure and a wireframe for a new service application of smart phones. Results: With a new service design for pharmacy users, users can track their medical record and visit the information about their current medical treatments anytime. Also the service helps patients build reliable relationships with doctors and pharmacists. Conclusion: Experience is not just an activity but series of multiple activities. The serving range of a medical service should not be determined by stakeholders but user's holistic experience. By approaching a service design with a holistic vision, it can enrich not only a temporary experience but also a whole life well being. Application: Since there are already many service applications advising patients about their illness and finding right doctors, this service design is focused on the experience from getting a prescription till feeling better. The next move is to combine those two parts medical services and design an integrated service application. As a prescription is going to be coded in numbers, we might consider to design an un-attended pharmacy which can shorten huge amount of time for filling prescriptions.

의료서비스의 만족도를 향상시키기 위한 방안으로 체감 대기시간 단축과 정확한 의료정보 제공, 검사의 정확도 등이 긍정적인 반응을 보여주고 있다. 이와 같은 방안에 동영상 홍보물이 유용성이 있는지 평가하였으며, 휴대용 DVD플레이어를 구입하여 검사 전 개인적으로 동영상을 시청하도록 한 방법이 서비스 만족도 향상에 도움이 되는 것으로 조사되었다. 체감대기시간 단축에 의한 만족도 향상은 예약시간보다 지연 되는 경우 보다 효과적이며, 현재 제공되고 있는 동영상의 활용도 향상을 위한 홍보를 적극적으로 시행한다면 정확한 의료정보 제공에 의한 만족도 역시 향상될 것이다. 방사성의약품 투여 후 표준섭취시간을 초과하는 시간대 중 가장 많은 부분을 차지하는 1~~3분대를 최소화하기 위해 약 7분 정도의 홍보 동영상을 제공한 결과 미준수 건수가 2.3% 감소하였으며, 이는 정확한 검사를 제공하여 고객의 만족도를 높일 수 있다. 향후 동영상 제공에 대한 홍보를 적극적으로 시행하고 검사 전 개별적으로 동영상을 시청할 수 있도록 휴대용 DVD 플레이어를 제공할 수 있는 구조적인 시스템이 갖춰진다면 의료서비스에 의한 고객 만족도 향상에 기여하리라 생각된다.

This study aims to analyze the quality and satisfaction of healthcare perceived by patients using hospitals and to provide basic data necessary for expanding and settling Vietnamese healthcare services by analyzing the impact on recommendation intentions. The research method selected one hospital in Vietnam and collected data from patients using the hospital and used a total of 286 effective samples as data for hypothesis verification. The research model and hypothesis verification were analyzed with the statistical data from SPSS and AMOS. The findings show that, first, tangibility, accessibility, and reliability all have a positive effect on the quality of healthcare. Second, it has been shown that only accessibility among the quality of healthcare has a positive effect on recommendation intentions. Third, customer satisfaction has been shown to have a positive effect on recommendation intentions. Fourth, when looking at the mediating effect, reliability among the quality of healthcare was shown as a full-mediated effect, but accessibility was shown to have a partial mediating effect and tangibility to have no mediating effect. Contact management is important because customer satisfaction is highly regarded when customers feel positive emotions at the interface from the provision of convenience facilities that support medical services to the reduction of waiting time for patients, employees kindness, treatment, medication, and inspection. It is also confirmed that the demand for convenient and rapid use of hospitals is increasing in Vietnam. In addition, if customer satisfaction is increased through friendly medical staff's response, the intention of recommendation will be even greater.
